[QUOTE="Prowler573, post: 2144940, member: 561023"] You [I]can[/I] run the Dual 2 Ohm version and wire the coils in series to a 4 Ohm load like so: [IMG]http://akamaipix.crutchfield.com/graphics/infolib/carlib/subs/1_2ohmDVC_4ohm.gif[/IMG] and that will give the sub the 400w @ 4 Ohms that your amp is rated for. I think it is rated for 650w @ 2 Ohms? Am I remembering that correctly? (Please let me know if that is incorrect as Alpine isn't within my realm of 'I know those stats off the top of my head without question') If I am remembering that right 650w isn't too much for a Type R and will better allow you to get more of the performance that sub is capable of. 400w will get it moving, don't get me wrong, but I really think it would like 650 better.
